contents We show that the decision problem of recognising whether a triangulated 3-manifold admits a Seifert fibered structure with non-empty boundary is in NP. We also show that the problem of producing Seifert data for a triangulation of such a manifold is in the complexity class FNP. We do this by proving that in any triangulation of a Seifert fibered space with boundary there is both a fundamental horizontal surface of small degree and a complete collection of normal vertical annuli whose total weight is bounded by an exponential in the square of the triangulation size.
